What patriot has not blushed tor his
country's fame at even the partial dis
CLOSURES of lawlessness, bribery and
corruption wrought by the great
whisky ringsp Disclosures which caus-
cd the names of Mcdonald, Joyce and
Babcock to rot, and which so tainted
General Grants administration, that
not even the superb generalship of
Roscoe Conkling could secure for the
great general third nomination.
So universally and habitually has
this traffic violated every law enacted
by any government to restrict it, that
the saying has become proverb:
Regulation does not regulate"
They violate the excise laws.
They violate the Sunday laws.
They violate the election laws.
They violate the police laws.
They violate the laws for the pro-
lection of minors.
Their trade is one trade in tho United
States which has proved itself notori-
ously, inherently and incorrgibly law
less. Even the News, Galveston and
Dallas. the ablest advocate of the
anti-prohibtionists. has felt compelled
recently to warn the liquor dealers
against furnishing arguments to their
adversaries by their cvasions of law.
But no friendly warning can avail to
an institution that, like ancient Baby
lon, ideals in slaves and the souls Of
men"
From the Dallas News of March the
goth, we clip the following;
The papers give Dallas due credit for
paying the liquor tax. though they make it
appear that more liquor is drank here than
in four of the other largest cities in the
State. The papers repeat the statement
that the tax collectors OF the following coun.
ties collected the amounts set opposite their
names from liquor dealers:

The train records show that 276 fewer loaded
cars were received and forwarded at Indian
apols last week than in the week preceding,
while handsome increase over the correspond
ing weeks in 1886 and 1885 is shown. The de-
crease was wholly in east-bound business, the
shipments of grain having fallen off sharply.
Holders il the West disposed to hold both
.heir wheat and oats for better prices one
ceiling seemingly unless obliged to raise money.
West-bound traffic begins to increase. the fall
shipments having set in. and from this on
heavy tonnage is looked for. Merchandise forms
large per cent CT the west bound shipments
nd railroad supplies still cut an important fig
ire. Shipments of coal and coke have com
nenced and promise from this to be quite
leavy. North-ani- south roads are doing a
rood business, lumber and watermelons coming
forth and grain and provisions with con-
iderable sprinkling of ice, constitute largely

July, has increased handsomely the last thee
days and promises to be heavy through the fall
months Shipments of live stock for August are

their stock. Below is given the number OF cars
received and forwarded at Indianapolis last
week, as compared with the corresponding
weeks in 1856 and 1885.

A Fast Run.

One Of the fastest runs ever made across the
State OF Indiana was by a special train over the
Vandalia and the c., H. e. D., from Terre Haute
to Cincinnati. carrying VIM. r. McKeen, ex-
president Of the Vandalia Saturday at about
10 o'clock Mr.. McKeen asked by telegraph
to come to Cincinnati by the executive commit
tee of the c., H & d. road special
train could bring him, and at 10:47 A. M. he left
Terre Haute, every thing being ordered to keep
put of the way between Terre Haute and Cincin-
natl The train ran into the Union Depot at
1910, p. NJ, making the run from Terre Haute
to Indianapolis in eighty-three minutes. dis
lance of seventy three miles The train stopped
five minutes at Indianapolis and them drawn by
\ c. H. e. i, engine, started for Cincinnati, max
ing the to Hamilton in l21 minutes, dis
lance of SO miles The run from Hamilton to
Cincinnati % miles, made In twenty nine
minutes. From this it will be seen that the
special train, which consisted of engine, bag
gage car and directors car hauled from
Tsrre Haute to Cincinn att. 1876 miles, in three
honrs and fifty-three minutes. The fastest time
made by the train was from Greencastle 70 In
dianapolis, forty and half minutes distance
80 miles At several places the C. III, &. l.,
for considerable distances a mile a minute was
covered The object of calling Mr.. McKeen to
Cincinnati has not been made public. but it is
supposed to be that the executive mittee might
learn from Mr. McKeen personally how things
stood between the c.. H. g. d. and the Vandalla
in the late deal, before they, the executive COM
mite, went to New York.

Boston capitalists, who ha considerable hold
ings of the L.. n. A & c.. stock, have become
fright ened and are unloading. and with this the
market has broken IA points since last Thurs
day. The Wall Street News says: What big
ifference it makes who tells the story Presi-
dent Stevens, of the Chicago s. Eastern Illinois,
says that his road is going to have all the
coal traffic of the Chicago g. Indiana Coal. and
that this item alone will take quarter of
million a year out of the Louisville, New
Albany & Chicago. Whereupon some timid Bos-
tonian gets frightened, unloads 5000 shares
the market and insiders pick it up from so
down to AZ. making their own price. Why
did not the frightened holders ask what this
coal business was worth? The Louisville, New
Albany e. Chicago carried it sixty miles for
thirty eight cents a ton, less than two-thrds of
a cent per ton per mile and made charges for
terminals whatever. There profit at
that figure, and they declined to take any more
for less than fifty cents, which is little enough.
By so doing they lose comparatively nothing in
net, and in gross about as much in a month as
they gain every week over last year. They
have business enough of their own to keep their
engines and cars busy all the time"

Rapid Transit.

The directors of the Rapid Transit
Railway Company held a meeting yes
terday and determined to consider the
estimates for three-foot gauge. They
have invited proposals from five diff
ferent railmakers for different kinds of
rails. The committee ON right of way
reported excellent progress, and it was
determined to commence the work OF
grading at Monrovia, making the line
through Arcadia and Santa Anita and
passing just below the large reservoir
in Sunny Slope. 1t is supposed by
some of the directors that a three-foot
guage will be all that is necessary and
better adapted to an electric motor
than to steam. Immediate work will
be commenced and the road is TO be
finished by the 1st of January.

Enterprise Unrewarded.

Charles Dillon and Jesse Platt were
chartered yesterday by an enterprising
real estate firm to drive an advertising
wagon around town. The vehicle was
supplied with a set of COW bell chimes,
and as it sailed down the principal
thoroughfares it certainly attracted
the observation Of passers-by; but at
the same time it struck CONSERVATION
into the hearts of the unfortunate
horses which were standing l.itched.
Finally the boys steered the Internal
machine down Spring street, at the
same time playing "Yankee Doodle
on the cow chimes. AS the vehicle
got opposite the Court House horse
harnessed to truck took fright, while
an animal standing near the curb also
became frightened and took refuge in
a doorway. Officer Weatherman ar.
rested the boys for maintaining O
nuisance and locked them up in the
City Prison.

HEgckel,s Hard Luck.

Officer Mackel, the policeman whose
beat is on Spring street, caught run
away horse yesterday afternoon be-
longing to a man named Russ. The
grateful owner showed his apprecia.
ticn by leaving box of fine cigars al
the Police station for him. The officer,
who is little more conscientious than
his brother officers, consulted Chief
Skinner before he opened the box.
His superior told him that he might
accept the present if he would {" sci
'em up" The officer went out into
the assembly room, and with a coun-
tenance somewhat clouded, passed
the box around the room. Suddenly
the box became empty, and he tossed
it into the waste basket and stood
looking at the novel sight of about
forty police officers smoking imported
cigars.

The proprietor of the rancho was
stacking hay, and while up ON the
stack the horses started to run away
with the wagon from which a China
man was pitching hay on to the stack.
The Chinaman was told to seize the
reins and stop the team, but instead
Of doing SO jumped off the wagon and
let the team go, which it did with a
rush in direction away from home.
Peter saw the disturbance and COM
pretended the situation at once. He
dashed forward and overlook the team
and by constant effort of bounding at
the head of the near horse, made the
flying team turn towards home, and
keeping up his line of action, turned
fhe animals home and around into the
shed without damage to horses or
wagon. Peter felt proud of his work
and met the proprietor with very
satisfactory air, as if to say: "See
how saved your horses and wagon
and load Of hayw Peter is now the
idol of the family.

ANOTHER BRUTE.
He Outrages a Little Girl ana
then ESCAPES.

Reclining upon couch in a small
cottage on Elsinore street in East Los
Angeles, lies the emaciated form of
the victim of another outrage. While
the crime recently committed by
Gormlee is still in the minds of our
people another outrage, full as brutal
in its details, presents itself to be
chronicled. In the cottage referred to
lives the family of William Zachariae,
a Swede, consisting of himself, wife,
two grown Sons and the little girl
Dagmar. Yesterday afternoon, while
the parents were about performing
their duties at the Empire laundry,
where they were employed, tramp
called at the house. The little girl
was all alone, and when the knock
came at the door, she opened it. A
tramp stood on the step. He entered
the house and grabbed the child and
hurled her on the bed. He accom-
plished his brutal purpose, but before
he had time to injnre the girl further,
a lady passed by the window. He
became frightened and ran away and
left the poor girl unconscious upon
the bed. The lady heard her
means and went to her assistance.
After considerable trouble the lady
managed to resuscitate the little girl
sufficiently to hear her statement.
She gave the particulars as above,
coupled with a description. She said
that the man was rather small and
had a red moustache and beard.
He had on a pepper-and-salt
suit of clothes and gray
overshirt. He wore straw hat
bound with black silk and blue rib
bon. The child is only ten years of
age and is rather small and quite del
icate. She lies in precarious con-
dition and it will be several days be-
fore the extent of her injuries can be
ascertained. The police were imme-
diately notified but up to a late hour
last night they had not succeeded in
capturing the culprit. In all proba.
bility, like Gormlee he will be allowed
to escape.

THE TRAIN ROBBERY.
The Train Arrived Early This
MORNING.

News reached this city early yester-
day morning that the express train
due here last night at 7:20 from the
east had been ditched and robbed
near Papago, where a similar event
took place on the 9th of April. The
fact that it had taken place at this
point created more comment thanwould
have been the case had it occurred
elsewhere and as soon as it became
known it was the general topic OF con-
versation. The fact that there had
been a robbery on the 9th of April
was still fresh in the minds OF the
people having been brought promi-
nently before the public recently by
the baseless prosecution of A. W. Nc
Queen who was acquitted upon his ex-
animation before United States Com
missioner Van Dyke. During that ex-
animation the self appointed
detective, Murphy, stated that
Mcqueen had told him that a
second robbery would take place. 1t
was somewhat singular that Mcqueen
was not asked about this statement
when ne was examined, for last night
he denied in emphatic terms that he
had ever said anything of the kind,
and as he has been in the city, and is
in the city, there is scarcely any pos
sibiity that he will be connected with
this robbery of Tuesday night even by
his enemies. AS soon as he heard
of the robbery yesterday he
went before the U. S. Commissioner
and the Marshal so that they might
be certain that he had not been at the
robbery unless he had come back by
telegraph.
The news received here by the rail-
road company corresponded with that
published in the telegraphic columns
of the HERALD and the railroad offi-
cials when called upon could give no
further particulars. 1t had been
reported to them that the
engineer and fireman had been
slightly injured by the overturning OF
the engine and that the express mes
senger had been forced to deliver up
the keys. Mr.. Pridham, of Wells,
Fargo 4 Co., also stated that he had
received no news other than that con-
tained in the kilograms as published.
The train which was stopped ar
rived in this city about A O'Clock
this morning, too late to obtain
an interview with any of
the trainmen or passengers who were
conversant with the facts in the case.
The express messenger was Charles F.
Smith, who was also on the train
which was robbed ON the 9th of April
and who defeated the robbers by hid
ing treasure in the stove.

A RAID.
The Police Force Crowns Itself
With Glory.

with GLORY
Last night bold dashing raid was
made by our police force. Detectives
had been .. rk for some weeks try
ing to 10, ..oe the whereabouts of some
women OF easy virtue. They at last
decided that on Alameda street
there were some women plying their
vocation. Accordingly last night a
posse of ten police officers, under COM
mand of High Detective Moore
swooped down upon these fearful vio-
lators of the laws of the city and landed
thirty-one of the females in jail. Two
unfortunate visitors were also taken
in. They deposited $40 each for theil
appearance this morning. This is a
great stroke of detective ability and a
magnificent display of bravery on the
part of the acute police. The usual
number of burglaries were doubtless
committed last night, but a burglar is
too trihing for the average policeman
to tackle. What is laid for is raging.
rampant prostitute or a red-handed1
gambler. The city will be enriched
several hundred dollars by this raid
but the girls again sought their old
quarters, and the morality OF the town
does not seem to be much improved
